+Summary: mcs permits illegal preprocessor directive
+
+mcs compiles the following without complaint:
+
+#if DEBUG
+// ...
+#endif DEBUG
+
+Note that the #endif directive is illegal. According to the C# spec, 
+#endif must be immediately followed by a newline, so "#endif DEBUG" is 
+illegal. (Visual Studio correctly diagnoses this error.)
+
+Also note that, according to the C# spec, even whitespace following the 
+#endif is illegal. However, Visual Studio permits whitespace.
